Procedure

A mixture of 90 (1.63 g, 11.4 mmol), 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (2.87 g, 34.2 mmol), and p-TsOH.H2O (196 mg, 1.14 mmol) in THF (60 mL) was stirred under nitrogen at 80° C. for 18 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by SiO2 chromatography with eluting with petroleum ether/EtOAc (1:1) to afford 2.48 g (95.9%) of 1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carbonitrile (92) as yellow oil: MS (ESI) m/z=228.1 [M+1]+.
